I had to fix that after both of the past two upgrades.  This time,
there was only ~/.mozilla/firefox and changing it doesn't solve
the problem.  Also tried having BOTH /fox and /weevel.  No joy.

I'm seeing the same thing.  It's finding my profile (as
.mozilla/firefox), because it knows my homepage, bookmarks,
extensions, and so on.  There's a bug filed (I don't recall the
number), so presumably it's being worked on.  Certainly the
maintainers are aware of the issue.
